I am already planning our 4th anniversary of DRUMS from HEAVEN. We will have another Halloween Costume Ball on Oct 31'st. You don't wanna miss this festive night. Come join the party!
I've decided to have a "free will" donation basket at each of my summer drum circles to hopefully raise fundraising capital for the start-up costs of future DRUMS from HEAVEN events. I would also like to raffle off a TOCA DJEMBE. Tickets available at $5. each for a chance to win the Djembe with bag, worth approx. $200. Drawing will be on Sept 5th
Please take a chance, and to help keep DRUMS from HEAVEN growing.

On Aug 19 we will head to the PNC Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ for our 3rd year of playing on the grass between the parking lots. We will have our drum circle just before the Allman Brothers and Doobie Brothers Show at PNC. This draws a good crowd. DRUM JAM starts at 5:30 goes till 7:30
On Sept 5 we will make our 2'nd appearance at The American Legion in Maywood at their end of summer BBQ. Last year we picked up some new drummers and had a jamm at the end of the day with a rock band which was very cool. This is a picnic which has a $20 entry fee and you can eat and drink all you want all day. We will also do the drawing for the drum at this venue. The winner does not have to be present on Sept 5. Please leave your name and phone # on your ticket.
So please consider coming out to drum, to dance, to have some fun and hopefully help D.F.H raise some money for charitable causes.
Remember this: ~~~ By the time we got to Woodstock, we were half a million strong,
everywhere was a song and a celebration.....~~~
